Codex
"Codex: a desperate caveful of mute exiles, and an inexplicable colony of shivering, bad-tempered monkeys."[1]
The Isle of Codex, or Codex, is a chilly island to the north of the Unterzee, located east of Whither.
Silence
"An isle of answers."[2]
Codex is a sullen island home to a group of Mute Exiles,[3] many of whom are ex-Whithern that dared to answer instead of ask.[4][5] Some of these Exiles have a particular question that they've been trying to answer for forever; should they find the answer to their question, they may start speaking again.[6]
Certain Exiles may also reveal information when given the proper sign (though of course they'll do it without speaking),[7] and the other few that are willing to communicate may provide answers (though of course these answers will lack their corresponding questions).[8]
There's a small population of irritable monkeys in Codex who maintain a mysterious shrine. They're in possession of several strange log-books, including a book that documents the Correspondence sigils dotting the landscape of Codex.[9][10] In fact, sigils can be found within the terrain of Codex as well, etched into the island's stones like fossils.[11]
An Answer: Forever hurtling towards the earth.
